Samoëns boasts a rich culinary tradition, deeply rooted in Savoyard cuisine. Signature dishes include 'tartiflette' (potato, reblochon cheese, lardons, onion), 'fondue savoyarde' (melted cheese with bread), 'raclette', and various cured meats and local cheeses (like Abondance, Beaufort). Traditional restaurants like 'La Table de Fifine' or 'Le Serac' offer authentic experiences. The weekly market every Wednesday in the main square is a highlight, selling regional produce, crafts, and specialties.
